PREFACE
This is the second in a series of reports that NCAER, the National Council of
Applied Economic Research, has been doing on detailed tourism satellite accounts for
the states and union territories of India. With the tremendous growth of the Indian
service sector, tourism as a location-specific economic activity is important at the sub-
national level. This is true for both tourism’s contribution to national income and to
employment. With 29 states, many larger in population than most countries in the
world, it is important to measure tourism activity within states through the compilation
of State Tourism Satellite Accounts (TSAs). State TSAs go well beyond a national TSA
in providing the direct and indirect contribution of tourism to state GDP and
employment using state-specific demand and supply data.
TSAs at the sub-national level are becoming increasingly important. The United
Nations World Tourism Organisation has emphasised the many reasons for
encouraging countries to develop sub-national or regional TSAs. One reason is the
worldwide trend towards decentralisation of political power and management of
national resources in states, regions and municipalities. In order to allocate and
monitor these resources effectively, more and better-integrated regional and local
information is required. Tourism activity inevitably has an unequal geographical
distribution and characteristics within a national territory, and understanding this
requires tourism statistics at different territorial levels. Improving the allocation of
resources and regulating markets in sensible ways for a sector with such diversity can
only be achieved by upgrading data and measuring economic impact at the sub-
regional level.
NCAER was commissioned by the Ministry of Tourism in the Government of India
in 2013 to compile Regional Tourism Satellite Accounts for all the states and UTs of
India for the base year 2009–10 in order to have a more complete understanding of the
tourism sector. NCAER has earlier compiled both the first and second national TSAs
for India. NCAER’s first report covered Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Jammu &
Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Sikkim, Tripura, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal. This
report covers Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand,
Karnataka, Maharashtra, Odisha, Puducherry, and Uttar Pradesh
In the absence of standard international guidelines to prepare sub-national TSAs,
NCAER has compiled the state TSAs along the same lines as the national TSA,
overcoming several data limitations in the process. These limitations have been
overcome by using the most logical rates and ratios based on reasonable assumptions.

How households of different Socio-Economic background spend on tourism
A comparative study based on Domestic Tourism Survey, 2008-09
1. Introduction
These days tourism is a way of life for everybody. The prime objective of tourism is to
take time out for recreation, visiting relatives/friends or pilgrimage etc. irrespective of the
Socio-Economic characteristics like caste, religion, gender, age, income class or occupation
group that a tourist might belong to. But the preferences for tourism activities, destinations
and expenses incurred on travel might vary across these characteristics.
The purpose of this study is to present the pattern of expenditure incurred on domestic
tourism across the tourist-households’ socio-economic characteristics. There are some
insights available on number of tourists by gender and age but there is a complete void of
information on spending pattern of tourists by the various socio-economic characteristics.
Such information was collected in the pan-India household survey on “Domestic Tourism in
India”, which was conducted by the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) during
2008-09. This report presents some of the key findings of this survey that help us meet the
objectives of this study.
2. Context of the study
Domestic tourism is a huge and ever-growing phenomenon in India. Despite this, the
tourism sector has failed to get as much attention from the research perspective as has many
other economic sectors of India, mostly because of the huge dearth of data. Realising this,
the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, took an initiative to fill this data void to a
great extent by conducting two comprehensive surveys on “Domestic Tourism in India” and
“International Passenger Survey”, the data of which have been extensively used in the
preparation of India’s Tourism Satellite Account and even the State Tourism Satellite
Accounts.

National Council of Applied Economic Research 2
The present study, commissioned by the Ministry of Tourism to NCAER, analyses
these data to prepare a report on “How households of different Socio-Economic background
spend on tourism – A comparative study using Domestic Tourism Survey”. This report is a
part of the second phase of the “3-year integrated plan for preparation of regional TSAs for
all states and UTs of India and two research topics for each year” that was commissioned to
NCAER by MoT in October 2013.
3. Objectives of the Study
As desired, the study aims to present and compare the spending pattern of tourists
belonging to different socio-economic categories. The socio-economic variables for which
data are available are as follows:
Gender
Age
Marital Status
Religion
Social Group
Household Type
Educational level
Usual Principal Status
Profession / Occupation
Industry of employment
The item-wise expenditure incurred by tourists belonging to the household variables are
presented in this report.
4. About Data Source
“Domestic Tourism in India” is an all-India household survey on domestic tourism
(DTS 2008-09), carried out during the period July 2008 to June 2009 by National Sample
Survey Organisation (NSSO) as part of its 65th Round of sample surveys. This was the first
time that such comprehensive survey on domestic tourism was undertaken by NSSO.
A comparative study of domestic Tourism survey, 2008-09
National Council of Applied Economic Research 3
A stratified multi-stage sampling design was adopted for the DTS 2008-09. The first
stage units (FSU) were the 2001 census villages in rural sector and urban frame survey
blocks in the urban sector. For larges FSUs, an intermediate stage of sampling was the
division of the FSU into a number of parts and random selection of one part for survey. The
ultimate stage sampling units were the households. In all, 1,53,038 households were
surveyed from 8109 sample villages and 4719 urban blocks spread over all states and union
territories of India. Of the total households, 97,074 (63 per cent) belonged to the rural areas
and 56,234 to urban areas.
A detailed schedule of enquiry was used to collect data from the sample households
on various parameters like household characteristics comprising household size, principal
industry, principal occupation, household type, religion, social group, household
consumption expenditure, number of overnight trips and same-day trips undertaken by the
household, visits of NRIs to the households and their impact, renting out of some portion of
the house to tourists during the last 365 days, and awareness, source of information, and
impact of the “Incredible India” campaign by the Government of India or other tourism
promotional campaigns. Data were also collected for each household member on age,
gender, marital status, educational level, usual principal activity status, industry and
occupation of employed members, number of overnight as well as same-day trips completed
during last 30 days and last 365 days.
For each trip, various trip characteristic data were also collected. These included
leading purpose of the trip, main destination, number of places visited, mode of travel, type
of stay, number of nights spent outside usual place of residence and so on. Finally, for the
latest three overnight trips completed during the last 30 days, detailed data were collected on
particulars of expenditure on different items under the heads of accommodation, food and
drink, transport, shopping, recreation, religious, cultural, sporting and health-related
activities, and other expenditures along with information of reimbursement/direct payment
by any institution for such trips.

5. Important concepts/definitions used in DTS
Trip A trip refers to the movement by one or more household members
travelling to a place outside their usual environment for purposes other
than those of migration or getting employed or setting up of residence
in that place and which is outside their regular routine of life, for a
duration of not more than six months.
Domestic
Visitor
A domestic visitor is a household member, who has completed a ‘trip’.
In other words, a domestic visitor is a person (household member),
residing in the country, who travels to a place within the country,
outside his or her usual environment and not as a part of his or her
regular routine of life, for duration of not more than six months at a
time.
Further, domestic visitors are classified into two categories: domestic
overnight visitors and domestic same-day visitors. A domestic
overnight visitor is a domestic visitor who spent at least one night in a
trip during last 365 days. This means that the trip covered at least two
calendar days, wholly or partly. A domestic same-day visitor is a
domestic visitor who did not spend even a single night in any trip
during last 365 days. This means that the trip started and ended on the
same day.
Since it is difficult to distinguish domestic tourists from other
travellers who are travelling within the boundary of the country of
reference, it is important to identify them by carefully looking into
their purpose and duration of travel. This requires a little more
scrutiny and it must be noted that:
All movements of persons commuting regularly and frequently
(nearly every day/every week/every fortnight) between their
A comparative study of domestic Tourism survey, 2008-09
National Council of Applied Economic Research 5
usual environment and some fixed places for the purpose of
work or study, visiting homes of friends or relatives, shopping
centres, religious places, centres of health care or any other
facilities that might be at a substantial distance away but
nevertheless were regularly and frequently visited were not
considered as trips.
Similarly, all movements of persons, whose nature of activities
within their regular routine of life involved making movements
outside their usual environment to different places, like
travelling salesmen, mobile hawkers, medical representatives,
on-board staff of airlines/railways or of buses, hired taxis, etc.
were not considered as trips.
Exceptions for exclusion from the coverage of trip as mentioned
above were all domestic movements performed by air except for
the purpose of migration or getting employed or setting up of
residence in that place were considered as trips even if such
movements fall within the regular routine of life of the visitor.
However, domestic movements performed by on-board aircraft
crew as part of their duty were not considered as trips.
Leading purpose
of the trip
This is defined as the purpose in the absence of which the trip would
not have taken place. Leading purpose for all the members who are
performing a trip is that purpose without which none of the members
in that trip would have undertaken the trip. Clearly, the leading
purpose of a trip will be the same for all the members who undertook
that trip. In DTS – 2008-09, these purposes have been identified as
below:
Business - This category includes trips of employees of
Government, public or private organisations or of self-
employed people, trips for installation of equipment,
A comparative study of domestic Tourism survey, 2008-09
National Council of Applied Economic Research 6
inspection, purchase and sale for enterprise; for attending
conferences, congresses, trade fairs and exhibitions; for
delivering lectures or concerts; for participation in professional
sport activities, etc. For example: Official tours of government
officials posted outside Delhi to attend occasional official
meetings at Delhi.
Holidaying, leisure and recreation - This category includes
sightseeing, attending sporting and cultural events, non-
professional active sports, adventure sports, recreational
activities, cultural activities, holidays at beaches and hill
stations, summer camps, dining out, visiting spas and other
establishments specialized in well-being, fitness except in the
context of a medical treatment (in which case the purpose
would be health & medical), etc.
Social (including visiting friends and relatives, attending
marriages, etc.) - This category includes visiting friends and
relatives, attending marriages/ any other family events/ other
social functions, visiting home towns, visits to arrange short-
term caring for the baby, sick or old; etc.
Pilgrimage & religious activities - This category includes
attending various religious meetings and events, and
undertaking pilgrimages to different places of worship or holy
places.
Education & training - This category includes trips to join
short-term courses (less than six months) following particular
programs of study, education and research programming,
acquiring specific skills through formal on-the-job training
including paid study, etc. For example, the trip of a professional
academician (e.g. college lecturer/school teacher) for acquiring
A comparative study of domestic Tourism survey, 2008-09
National Council of Applied Economic Research 7
a certain academic qualification would come under this
category. However, if his trip primarily involves delivering
academic lectures then the purpose of his trip was reported not
as education and training but as business.
Health & medical - This category includes trips to spa, fitness
and health resorts, treatments and cures, Ayurvedic and other
health resorts of traditional medicines, etc., for getting short-
term (less than six months) medical treatment.
Shopping - This category includes purchasing of consumer
goods for own personal use or as gifts but not for resale or for
use in a future productive process (in which case the purpose
would be business). For example, in many places in our
country people visit some nearby city/town or market place
primarily for the purpose of purchasing consumer goods
during festivals like Puja, Diwali, Eid, Christmas, etc. or
during social functions like marriages, birthdays, etc., in their
households. For such trips the purpose was taken as shopping.
But if a shopkeeper undertakes a trip to a city/town to make
wholesale purchase for retail selling then the purpose of his
trip was taken as business and not shopping.
Others - This category includes purposes which are not
indicated elsewhere. For example, making a trip to render
some social service, such as attending a blood donation camp
to donate blood, comes under this category.
Domestic
Tourism
Domestic tourism covers all the trips of household members within the
territory of India, i.e. of domestic visitors, either as a domestic trip or
as part of an international trip.
A comparative study of domestic Tourism survey, 2008-09
National Council of Applied Economic Research 8
Tourism
Expenditure
This refers to the total expenditure incurred on a trip undertaken by a
domestic visitor. This includes expenditure made not just during the
trip but also the expenditure related to the trip even if made before or
after the trip. It also includes expenditure related to the trip, whether
directly paid or reimbursed, by some institution like Government or
other agencies on behalf of the selected household.
Trip duration
This refers to the average night spent out of usual place of stay by
visitors including time of travelling.
6. Incidence of trips by Socio-Economic categories
The data suggests that the incidence of trips undertaken in a year by persons in rural
areas and by those in urban areas does not vary much. The average number of overnight
trips made by a rural person was estimated at 2.10 while for urban person, it was 2.07. Both
rural males and urban males, on an average, undertake more trips than rural females and
urban females respectively. Incidence of overnight trips is observed the highest amongst Sikh
persons in rural areas (2.37) and amongst Jains (2.34) in urban areas. While analyzing
incidence of trips by age groups of the visitors, highest trips per person is made by those
belonging to 30-59 years of age-groups (rural: 2.47, urban:2.33); and this is followed by
persons belonging to 15-29 years age-group (rural: 2.13, urban: 2.02). The effect of some
socio-economic characteristics on incidence of trips is presented in Table 1.

7. Average duration of overnight trips
The average number of nights spent on overnight trips was about 3 for the rural
population and about 4 for the urban. However, the average duration of overnight trips
undertaken by the urban population varied from 2 nights in case of shopping trips to 5.6 in
case of medical trips. In rural areas, the least average duration was observed in case of
shopping related trips (1.5 nights) while the highest average duration pertained to leisure
trips (4.3 nights). Figure 1 presents average duration by leading purposes.
